Smile Just want to say hi to my friends here.....

Hey guys, whassup. Haven't forgotten about you guys. My internet is still off, but that has given me more time to do other things, like go outside and breathe fresh air and enjoy stuff like sunlight....

Here's a short and quick update on what's been going on with my car: I received my 6-point mild steel roll bar/cage from S&W Racing and fitted it--fits PERFECTLY (thanks for the guidance pony_power and J. Chambers). I stripped my interior down--gonna change it from maroon-type color to grey. Got my 2002 NHRA Rulebook from Summit. My 2 black Corbeau Targa RS seats, RCI harnesses, dark grey carpet should all get here this Monday. My friend is gonna start welding Monday or Tuesday. I have begun primering and painting the interior panels and little things here and there. I'm getting excited and the car is starting to look really racey. .

In less than a month I'll be preparing a fresh 351W with the proper forged steel goodies to handle the new Procharger D1-SC intercooled blower kit from ATI. Then about a month or two (hopefully) I'll be purchasing the blower.

Can't wait......

Hope you guys have been doing well. I'll try to check back here a little more often and in a week or 2 I'll try and post some picks on the project.

Later guys.....

GHood to hear from you man. That car is gonig to be one hell of a beast. can't wait to see video of the procharged 351 when it gets built. Is the 351 gonig to be bored or stroked? Like mercury said there have been some disagreements as of latebut as a whole I think its been pretty much the same as when you left.

P.S. don't take to much time getting the net back=)

Nice to see a post up from you. Sounds like things are coming along with your project. My 87GT is in the project stage right now as well. It's getting a Boss 302 engine with a supercharger and...... Okay, I'm lying, it's getting stripped down and cleaned up to get rid of some rust before I sell it. Almost as exciting, right? HAHAHAHAA.

Take it easy.

Fox, that car sounds pretty mean. Wish I had the money and or time to do a car like that.

Josh, I laughed out loud at your post. Actually I laugh at most of them you're pretty funny.

Topless, how did you get those Smilies to yell at each other?

Thumbs up

I was wondering where you were

I know what you mean about getting out, without access to the internet. I was without a cpu for 2 monthes and alot happened that normally wouldn't have happened... all because I got out.

Good luck with the car.

That is a wonderful site, I've been going there since he first put it up... sometimes he has to change servers though due to huge bandwidth, so I save the ones I really like and host them myself!All these years, I could never figure out what this one was all about:

LOL!

You guys are hilarious.

Hg.... FLame wars? . Ha. Keepin the moderators on their toes (since they don't post much (except for maybe Mr. 50 who came out of hiding).

LOL. pony_power, I KNOW the feeling of a crowded room since I don't have a garage or storage house and it's getting worse. My room is starting to smell like the underside of my car

HA HA. Unit, man, you had me going there.

Hey, all you guys are great. Thanks all of you for replying. I'll post some pics of the FOX as soon as possible. Later...
